Nico Merritt

Women's Cut & Stylist Specialist

Nearly ten years deep in his craft, Nico is a precision haircutter establishing himself as the woman's cut and style specialist at Barbetorium. Always a curious student, Nico's hunger and drive lead him to becoming an educator early on, teaching and learning from the country's best, and even creating his own systems - becoming known in the hair industry as "The Scissor Guy."

His curiosity took him far from home, but also brought him closer to his community. Four years ago, Nico recognized the large deaf community in Rochester and learnied ASL to best serve his growing list of deaf clients, becoming known in the deaf community as a hairdresser who can sign!

With the mind to create and the skill of precision, Nico can tackle any project given to him, making it a point to treat every client in the studio as his personal masterpiece.
